RV Batteries
I've had Trojans in for 5 years & still going. I like them. I've used 105'S
& 135"S I think I get my money's worth out of them.

I'm needing to replace the 4-6volt Interstate batteries in my 82FC35. Would
identical (size wise) golf cart batteries be suitable or would I be better off
replacing them with the Interstate? There is about $30 per battery difference.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I picked up mine at Sam's Club. I didn't have a lot of time to think
through all the options, but Sam's was close and open on the weekend
when I needed them. So far so good.

I did this recently, and after considering all avalible options,
decided to go with Trojan T-125's.

I can not remember the numbers, but these batteries offered the
greatest capacity and heavier plates than others of the same
physical size. I paid eighty nine dollars a piece for them.

Wait a minuite, just remembered, four of these batteries will give
you a total of 480 Amp Hours @12 Volts.

Now, after using them, and monitoring their performance with a
Zantrex XBM (A very percise and versital instrument) I could not be
happier.

Good luck, you can check them out on the Trojan web site.

Alex,
When it comes to batteries, the price doesn't mean much when the
bus won't start. ;o)
Trojan is the standard for golf cart batteries, nearly everyone
involved in that business will agree with this statement.
I did a lot of research before going this way and my repair shop
is an Interstate Battery Dealer...
I recently installed Trojan T-145s in mine and have very
carefully monitored performance with a digital volt meter. They
really are great and work better than anything I've tried so far.

http://www.trojan-battery.com/Products/P...Name=T-145

This shows the dimensions. They're about a half inch or so
taller than standard golf cart batteries, but they fit right in and
have a lot more reserve power.

oops sorry about previous post

The two Premier Battery Manufacturers are Trojan and Rolls/Surrette
http://www.rollsbattery.com
http://www.trojanbattery.com
both have there merits but are simply the best in flooded cell batteries
For AGM batteries
